The Supreme Administrative Court’s decision 2026:13 leaves several questions open
The decision KHO 2026:13 clarifies that a telecom infrastructure company within a group (like Telia Towers Finland Oy) can be treated as a “teleyritys” under the law, allowing it to apply for placement rights for telecom masts — even if it does not itself provide services to the public. However, the ruling leaves key issues unresolved, especially regarding how broadly this definition applies and how to balance property rights against telecom infrastructure needs. It also raises uncertainty about how placement conditions, such as cost–benefit assessments and landowner impacts, should be evaluated in practice.
